Methods: Expression profles of GSE55100, deposited from peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 12 T1DM patients and 10 normal controls, were downloaded from the Gene Expression Omnibus to uncover diferentially expressed long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs), mRNAs, and microRNAs (miRNAs). The ceRNA regulatory network was constructed, then functional and pathway enrichment analysis was conducted. AT1DM-related ceRNA regulatory network was established based on the Human microRNA Disease Database to carry out pathway enrichment analysis. Meanwhile, the T1DM-related pathways were retrieved from the Comparative Toxicogenomics Database (CTD). Results: In total, 847 mRNAs, 41 lncRNAs, and 38 miRNAs were signifcantly diferentially expressed. The ceRNA regu- latory network consisted of 12 lncRNAs, 10 miRNAs, and 24 mRNAs. Two miRNAs (hsa-miR-181a and hsa-miR-1275) were screened as T1DM-related miRNAs to build the T1DM-related ceRNA regulatory network, in which genes were considerably enriched in seven pathways. Moreover, three overlapping pathways, including the phosphatidylinosi- tol signaling system (involving PIP4K2A, INPP4A, PIP4K2C, and CALM1); dopaminergic synapse (involving CALM1 and PPP2R5C); and the insulin signaling pathway (involving CBLB and CALM1) were revealed by comparing with T1DM- related pathways in the CTD, which involved four lncRNAs (LINC01278, TRG-AS1, MIAT, and GAS5-AS1). Conclusion: The identifed signature RNAs may serve as important regulators in the pathogenesis of T1DM.

Essential Genes And Their Role In Autism Spectrum Disorder Abstract Essential genes (EGs) play central roles in fundamental cellular processes and are required for the survival of an organism. EGs are enriched for human disease genes and are under strong purifying selection. This intolerance to deleterious mutations, commonly observed haploinsufficiency and the importance of EGs in pre- and postnatal development suggests a possible cumulative effect of deleterious variants in EGs on complex neurodevelopmental disorders. Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a heterogeneous, highly heritable neurodevelopmental syndrome characterized by impaired social interaction, communication and repetitive behavior. More and more genetic evidence points to a polygenic model of ASD and it is estimated that hundreds of genes contribute to ASD. The central question addressed in this dissertation is whether genes with a strong effect on survival and fitness (i.e. EGs) play a specific oler in ASD risk. I compiled a comprehensive catalog of 3,915 mammalian EGs by combining human orthologs of lethal genes in knockout mice and genes responsible for cell-based essentiality.

Webb, Rajasekar Ramasamudram-chakravarthi, Lisa Karger, Lakshmi Mehta, Ruth Kornreich, George A. Diaz, Shuyu Li, Lisa Edelmann* and Rong Chen* Abstract Routine clinical application of whole exome sequencing remains challenging due to difficulties in variant interpretation, large dataset management, and workflow integration. We describe a tool named ClinLabGeneticist to implement a workflow in clinical laboratories for management of variant assessment in genetic testing and disease diagnosis. We established an extensive variant annotation data source for the identification of pathogenic variants. A dashboard was deployed to aid a multi-step, hierarchical review process leading to final clinical decisions on genetic variant assessment. In addition, a central database was built to archive all of the genetic testing data, notes, and comments throughout the review process, variant validation data by Sanger sequencing as well as the final clinical reports for future reference. The entire workflow including data entry, distribution of work assignments, variant evaluation and review, selection of variants for validation, report generation, and communications between various personnel is integrated into a single data management platform. Three case studies are presented to illustrate the utility of ClinLabGeneticist. ClinLabGeneticist is freely available to academia at http://rongchenlab.org/software/clinlabgeneticist.

  • Genetic Variations in Olfactory Receptor Gene OR2AG2 in a Large
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Genetic variations in olfactory receptor gene OR2AG2 in a large multigenerational family with asthma Samarpana Chakraborty1,2, Pushkar Dakle1, Anirban Sinha 1, Sangeetha Vishweswaraiah3, Aditya Nagori1,2, Shivalingaswamy Salimath4, Y. S. Prakash5, R. Lodha6, S. K. Kabra6, Balaram Ghosh1,2, Mohammed Faruq1,2, P. A. Mahesh4 & Anurag Agrawal1,2* It is estimated from twin studies that heritable factors account for at-least half of asthma-risk, of which genetic variants identifed through population studies explain only a small fraction. Multi-generation large families with high asthma prevalence can serve as a model to identify highly penetrant genetic variants in closely related individuals that are missed by population studies. To achieve this, a four- generation Indian family with asthma was identifed and recruited for examination and genetic testing. Twenty subjects representing all generations were selected for whole genome genotyping, of which eight were subjected to exome sequencing. Non-synonymous and deleterious variants, segregating with the afected individuals, were identifed by exome sequencing. A prioritized deleterious missense common variant in the olfactory receptor gene OR2AG2 that segregated with a risk haplotype in asthma, was validated in an asthma cohort of diferent ethnicity. Phenotypic tests were conducted to verify expected defcits in terms of reduced ability to sense odors. Pathway-level relevance to asthma biology was tested in model systems and unrelated human lung samples. Our study suggests that OR2AG2 and other olfactory receptors may contribute to asthma pathophysiology. Genetic studies on large families of interest can lead to efcient discovery. Asthma is a chronic disorder of the airways caused by a strong genetic predisposition, in addition to environmen- tal insults1.

Not only did a paired-end approach provide a greater dynamic range The deep unbiased view of a cancer cell enabled by massively in comparison with single read based approaches, but it clearly parallel transcriptome sequencing has greatly facilitated gene fu- distinguished the high-level ‘‘driving’’ gene fusions, such as BCR-ABL1 sion discovery.

In oncogene; cancer marker particular, it is an auxiliary component of the macromolecular aminoacyl-tRNA synthase complex (MARS). Identity Its expression is found frequently altered in human Other names: P18, AIMP3, ARS-interacting cancer cells and it is considered a putative tumor multifunctional protein 3, Multisynthase Complex suppressor gene. Auxiliary Component P18, Elongation Factor P18 This review collects the data on DNA/RNA, the HGNC (Hugo): EEF1E1 protein encoded and the diseases where EEF1E1 is involved. Location: 6p24.3 Figure. 1. EEF1E1 gene and splicing variants/isoforms.
